Welcome to this breathtaking, iconic 70's split-level home, with a mid-century modern vibe and perfectly nestled on nearly an acre of natural beauty, including a babbling stream running through the property. With 292 feet of street frontage along beautiful W. Huron River Dr., the home is uniquely situated at the west end of Barton Pond and offers captivating views of the Huron River, including the historic 149-year-old Foster/Maple Rd wrought iron, single lane bridge. This home offers a harmonious blend of style, comfort and serenity. From the moment you approach, the charming paver driveway and freshly painted exterior set the tone for this well cared-for 3-bedroom, 2-bath retreat. This home boasts a range of thoughtful updates including a new furnace (2022), a hot water heater (2023), and upgraded PVC sewer lines and basement plumbing (2022). The kitchen and laundry also boasts newer appliances, including a dryer, oven, microwave, dishwasher, and disposal, all installed in 2017, and new washer (2024). Additional features such as a water treatment system and a roof replacement (2012) ensure long-term peace of mind. Step inside and experience the warmth of rich wood floors and an abundance of natural light. The open-concept design ensures a seamless flow, with the kitchen serving as the heart of the home. Skylights and a wall of windows flood the space with light, highlighting the crisp white cabinetry, sleek corian countertops, and stainless steel appliances. Adjacent to the kitchen, you'll find a spacious dining area perfect for hosting and entertaining, along with a cozy sitting nook featuring built-in shelving - ideal for a personal library or displaying treasured items. The vaulted great room is a true centerpiece, offering a gas fireplace and oversized windows that bathe the space in sunlight.

The lower level provides a warm and versatile living area, featuring a family room with a striking floor-to-ceiling brick wood-burning fireplace, French doors that lead to the second deck, and a home office complete with built-in desk space with views of the river. Upstairs, you'll find three spacious bedrooms, each thoughtfully designed for comfort and all with custom closet features, with the primary offering an extra-large skylight and large floor to ceiling window views of both the river and stream below. The renovated spa-like bathroom is a true retreat, boasting radiant heated floors, skylight, and a luxurious spa tub - perfect for relaxing after a day spent enjoying the surrounding natural beauty. Nestled in a truly unparalleled location, very few homes are situated on this stretch of W. Huron River Dr., a prime recreational corridor. This home is a dream for outdoor lovers. Watch deer, swans, and eagles from your window, or decks. Explore the conceptual B2B trail right outside your front door, with the final countywide non-motorized trail pathway projects being planned, including the segment across the street to link Maple Rd/Foster Rd to Barton Nature Area. Notice has been sent that the public engagement process is "anticipated in the winter/spring of 2025". The Barton Nature Area pedestrian tunnel to Bandemer Park construction project is currently underway and eventually a non-motorized pathway will extend from this location in either direction east and west, all the way towards and through both Ann Arbor and Dexter along the Huron River corridor - just take your pick. River access is also close by just west of Maple Rd., or east at Barton Nature Area/Barton Dam. This home is more than a residence, it is a part of the landscape surrounding it, a harmonious blend of comfort, style and an extraordinary connection to nature, an activated recreational corridor filled with animals and people, walkers, bikers, joggers, car enthusiasts, day trippers, crew, stand up paddlers, and kayakers. You will just love looking out your front window at it all. Ann Arbor Township Taxes. Don't miss this rare opportunity to be somewhere that feels so special and unique, a paradise right outside your front doorstep.
